3 Solutions For Get Rid Of Your Junk Car

There are several very well known yards across the United States; their main business is not recycling the cars it is selling the parts that they take off the cars.

Safety and convenience is the primary advantage of customization. Updating your car with more fuel-efficient engines and better seatbelts and airbags will make your ride much smoother and safer.



You need not sit in your car just to go to a supermarket nearby. It will not only waste your fuel but will also cause unnecessary pollution. You can walk or use a bicycle instead.

There have been many documented discoveries of valuables hidden away in or as what others may term junk so it is best to start by investigating the car itself. No one wants to give away a classic that may be worth way more than what it was sold for. Even if the vehicle may not be important to the owner, there may be persons or clubs to whom it might.

Pat yourself on the back and know that by you junking your car you are in actual fact earning yourself some well earned cash and at the same time helping the environment.

Another, idea that struck me. Heated seats. This is actually a fairly simple idea. You can pull them from any factory-equipped car. Try the local old junk. Just make sure they can bench test them before you walk out the door. You'll want the thermostat control with this, which can be mounted under the tail for adjustment while riding. Basically, heated seats are no more then a heating pad element that sits under the upholstery, a top the padding. The heating elements average about 100-140 degrees F. I did a search for "Upholstery Heating Elements" and came up with some good results and even installation instructions and tutorials for various seats. Both OEM and retro fits.

Even better, you can often find the Chrysler spares at a local shop via the internet. Many salvage yards or breakers list some of their inventory online. As the technological age continues to grow, this trend towards e-listings will also grow.

Just like Duchamp used ready mades and called them art, such as his piece called the "Fountain" which was actually a used urinal, car parts and auto parts can be used as art ready mades. You can take an old bumper or hub cap and call it a piece of artwork. Just simply sign your name to it, put it on a platform, and you have yourself a ready made. Or take an old windshield and smear it with paint and you can be engaging in a type of performance art. Contemporary art can be so many things, and it can even go as far as to creating art from old car parts and auto parts. There is so much that can be done with these old vehicle parts. You can also use them for a science fair and do tests on old vehicle parts to compare how new parts function better than old used parts.

Aftermarket car parts come in two variations. The first is simply a generic form of the OEM part, much like generic pharmaceuticals compared to name brands. The second is an accessory for a car such as cold air intake systems for the engine, racks to carry bikes and so on. There isn't much debate that this second form of aftermarket car parts is fine, but the first variation is the area where contention starts.

Locating some is simple enough, they can usually be found online or in the local yellow pages. There is almost always many salvage yards in each town or the surrounding areas regardless of how remote the location is.
